OVER FIVE DECADES, JONI TOLD HER OWN STORY ON THE BBC.
Throughout her career, Joni Mitchell graced BBC radio and television with magical performances and open, in-depth, at times controversial interviews.
This illuminating collection of transcripts, conversations and appearances is a tapestry of Joni's thoughts and inspirations, a memoir told in moments across five decades. Individually captivating, together they offer a window into the mind of a truly original artist - told through her own words and the memories of those who were there.Compiled and guided by BBC journalist and author Tom Hagler, River of Words: Joni Mitchell at the BBC is the story of an incredible life lived on the airwaves.
